Rising Sophomore Registration Checklist


First Things First

  • Your yellow web-registration card will be in your student mailbox on April 5, 2012.
  • Locate the names of your current advisors on your yellow web-reg card.
  • Read the online web-registration information.
Things to Consider

  • Do you have any first-year courses that still need to be completed?
  • Do you need to enroll in MATH060 and/or MATH065?
  • Do you need to enroll in PHYS051?
  • Have you completed your first-year fitness PE JP requirement?
  • Have you completed your other two PE requirements?
    Beginning Fall 2010, PE courses are worth 1 unit of credit per class (not to exceed 3 credits), but will not be included in your academic overload consideration.
  • You must have at least 12 units to be a full-time student.
  • Consider alternate electives, in case your first choices become full/closed.
  • You have already been pre-registered in your Choice Lab unless your Choice Lab assignment is for the Spring semester.

Web-Registration

  • Look at the Web-Registration overview, schedule and instructions on the Registrar's website
  • Look up your web-registration appointment time. It is on your yellow pre-registration card and on the Registrar's website. You will have portal web-registration access for a 24 period beginning at your appointed start time. After that, come to the Registrar's Office for continued registration. After the formal registration, the portal will open again to all 5-C students for add/drop for Fall courses.
  • Use the Course Registration features to look up courses so you will be familiar with the portal features before your pre-registration access starts.
  • Be sure to get your web-registration clearance well before your web-registration start time.
  • Contact the HELP Desk or the Office of the Registrar if you have problems with portal web-registration.

Decide on Courses for Fall 2012

  • Have your advisors approve your courses/alternates and sign the pre-reg card.
  • Obtain signatures for independent study / directed reading / research classes using the blue independent study / directed reading / research approval form available at the Registrar's office.
  • Obtain instructor permission using the PERMission system on the Student Portal for any of your classes that require it.
  • Obtain instructor signatures on a Class Conflict Approval Form if any class has a time conflict with another class.
  • Arrange for overload approval with Dean Jacobsen if needed. Ordinarily, a student must have a 3.00 semester GPA the preceding semester to be eligible for an overload.

Last But Not Least
Is the information on your yellow web-reg card complete?

  • Course numbers complete with section/college indicated (i.e., BIOL052 HM 02).
  • Course titles as complete as possible plus days and times listed.
  • Do you have all the required PERMissions?
  • Is the information on the web-registration card legible?
  • Once you have obtained your advisors' approvals, take your web-registration card (and approval forms, if needed) to the Office of the Registrar prior to your web web-registration start time to receive web-registration clearance. You will be given a copy of your yellow web-registration card which you will use to web-register for courses during your 24 hour web-registration window. Don't wait until the last minute. You can get your registration clearance after your advisors have signed your web-registration cards.

    If you have any questions regarding web-registration, web-registration clearance or PERMissions, please feel free to contact the Office of the Registrar at 909-621-8090.
